We had a Zodiak, with 2 of us on intense watch for submerged logs and trees! Epic day walk, for various reasons. 18 hours, still missed Pokana. Talk about unfinished business! Next time it'll hopefully include the Spires. :)

Wow, that's a heck of a daywalk!

And yes, I didn't think that one would be too hard. All yours :)

It was indeed. A GPS is great for finding tents in pitch black.

Anybody can go next.

Close enough, Last. It's pretty much where you'd turn off the Ducane Range route if you were going there.
